Publisher Description

From the bestselling author of A Month of Sundays, with new novel At the End of the Day out now.

Gang of Four
is a story of four very different journeys and a celebration of women in the prime of life.


"Every woman needs her gang of four" Mary Moody

"A delightful story of the joy of stepping outside your comfort zone" Australian Women's Weekly


She had a husband, children and grandchildren who loved her, a beautiful home, enough money. What sort of person was she to feel so overwhelmed with gloom and resentment on Christmas morning?

They have been close friends for almost two decades, supporting each other through personal and professional crises-parents dying, children leaving home, house moves, job changes, political activism, diets and really bad haircuts.

Now the 'gang of four', Isabel, Sally, Robin and Grace, are all fifty-something, successful ...and restless.
It is Isabel who makes the first move, taking a year away from her family to follow in her mother's footsteps across Europe. Soon Sally is on her way to San Francisco, to come face to face with a guilty secret. Robin, in the wake of a clandestine relationship, heads for isolation in the country. And Grace? Well, Grace would never go away for an entire year, but, lonely in the others' absence, she thinks she might take a short holiday in England. Once there, she bumps into someone she hardly knows - herself.

Gang of Four

Delightfully insightful to the experiences and process of reaching one's 50th birthday! The characters are rich and deep and the different personas are well represented through the author's narrative. Thanks for a great story.
